I'm looking to buy coax cable right now but I'm unsure what to get. It looks like my longest run is somewhere around 116 ft. I had no plans to use UHF channels, but would it be of benefit to do so? I'm planning on doing a maximum of 4 channels.

Would RG11 be better no matter what, or would it be entirely pointless to get RG11 vs. RG6 for my use? There are so many types of coax cable, apparently. I never knew.

My building is metal and it blocks cell phone signal almost entirely, so I assumed there would be little hope of broadcasting successfully via an antenna. I might experiment with it down the line, but at first I'd just like to get a few of my favorite TVs hooked up directly. It seems like a few of them are having some fussiness with RF reception anyway, so troubleshooting problems would probably be easier if I know the connection is physical.
